+ <li><font color=#009000><strong>FUNCTIONALITY FIX</strong></font><br>
+ The kernel was using a fixed and hard-coded location for the arguments
+ vector passed from the <strong>/boot</strong> loader.  This prevented
+ </strong>/boot</strong> from placing the boot arguments vector at any
+ other location, causing a kernel crash early in the autoconfiguration
+ stage.  In 2.5, the bootblocks will be modified to use a new location.
+ Hence, if you wish old kernels to boot on a new bootblock, those
+ kernels will only work if they were linked with this patch.
+ <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.4/i386/bootargv.patch>
+ A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a><br>
